Integration of an online image editor
Describe the feature you'd like
It would be a nice feature if it were possible to edit an image right in Bookstack. Therefore one will be able to make some markings within an image (which was taken with a camera for example). If looked around and there is a promising project here: https://github.com/viliusle/miniPaint Maybe it is possible to integrate this in a manner like the drawings.io integration.
Describe the benefits this would bring to existing BookStack users
Simple edititing of pictures right out of bookstack.

Additional context
No response
Yes, please. I found this request when searching through the tickets before opening my own.
Use case: For some of my research, I often take photographs with my phone of something I'm working on for the purpose of putting the images into pages in my Bookstack wiki. The workflow to do this looks a little like this:
- Take pictures on my phone
- E-mail them to myself from my phone
- Save files locally
- Edit in the GIMP (crop and redact, usually)
- Save locally
- Insert into Bookstack page
It would be really handy to be able to do this without having to involve the GIMP or anything else prior to inserting the images (or even without having to get the images off of my phone - page, crop, and save would be great). Being able to scale images from the browser is nice and all, but a little more functionality would be great.
I did some looking around, and there are some options that might be considered:
- https://github.com/scaleflex/filerobot-image-editor (I don't know how heavy this option is, all things considered)
- https://github.com/jimp-dev/jimp
- https://github.com/fengyuanchen/cropperjs (if nothing else, it makes cropping images possible instead of just resizing them)
- https://github.com/nhn/tui.image-editor
- https://github.com/MattKetmo/darkroomjs (Of course, it's been DV'd.)
